Four cast members of "The Imaginary Invalid" pose on stage during a rehearsal. One mad is in bed, wearing sick clothes, another sits next to him wearing professorial robes, a man stands hear by in 18th century clothing, and a woman kneels by the...

At Bryce Junction, about eight rats climbed into the truck and headed toward Salt Lake. The rest of us continued in the bus to Bryce Canyon, planning to arrive in Salt Lake the following day.
The trip to Salt Lake in the truck was a relatively...

On the inland boundary of our campsite a modest leaning tower was constructed. It even had a sign warning of the dangers inside; and as it quivered and quaked in the wind, some of us waited anxiously to see if it would fall.
Pearl and Glad pulled...

Eventually, the war became too rough. Betty was pulled into the river and held under accidentally; Glad was getting mighty cold; and Merlin lost part of his finger as he tried in vain to retain a large can which was his last weapon. When his crew...

everybody to the dance. What a grand orchestra they were! John Farnsworth called the squares after we had gotten our partners during the round dancing and a Virginia reel. Stan turned out to be practically the best dancer there, and

given to us; and, for the rest of the evening, we listened
or spoke and were filled with the love and the joy of the people and the world about us. We stared hard at the huge rock walls across the river, while they slowly turned from

meaningfulness of this spot. Though we wished to linger
there in the breeze and the quietude we had found, in order to get down to the camp before dark, we had to begin the descent. On the way down each of us collected film boxes, candy wrappers,...

light red limestone which we saw for the remainder of the trip. The walls of the canyon were lower, but no less rugged than they had been previously; and our experienced eyes could now more quickly sight the tell-tale talus of an abandoned mine. We...

After the supper had vanished, and while we all washed our plates, cups, and utensils with the cool mud of the creek bed, a roaring campfire was built; and, as the blaze died away, and the embers glowed brightly, the entire group sat around,...

With the "Shasta" tied securely, we shoved off into the constantly flowing river. A long and interesting day lay ahead of us. Just four miles downstream we made (or we should say four crews made) the landing at Smith Fork. A short hike through...

Toward the end of the trip for the day, we more confidently tackled the Ticaboo Rapids, and a few turns later, rounding a bend, we saw the glorious majesty of Tapestry Wall before us. Our first camp awaited our arrival. Enthusiastic and courageous...

For the second time that day, Frisby became the national pastime, but eventually with the philosophy that if you can't beat 'em, join 'em, we played baseball too. Bob Parry, an experienced Rat, knew that the back seat of the bus made a most...

everyone did, where they were from, who they were, how they stood state-wise, and what they looked like. The last two we could remember, but the rest had to be relearned at later meetings. As we paused in Provo, two cute girls in red bandana...

The second weekend of June may have seemed quite ordinary to the rest of the world, but to a select few, excitement was afoot. In various Salt Lake homes (to be revealed later), people bustled about airing bed rolls, buying lip balm, cleaning...

Two eighteen foot and one fourteen foot grain drills in action planting crested wheatgrass and western wheatgrass seed in the Widtsoe Resettlement project in Johns Valley. The land has been plowed with Wheatland plows to prepare the seed bed. ...
